[far]

I wish there was a guide for mine too...thanx anyway

[TheFilePirater]

[far]

Nah...Ill figure it out somehow...Can u tell me how to make screenshots?

[TheFilePirater]

1.) Open the window you want to make a screen shot of.

2.) Hit "Print Scrn/SysRq" on your keyboard, its located above the arrow keys.

3.) Open up paint and hit "Ctrl+V" and there you go!

4.) Use an image host to upload your pictures. I perfer these (http://www.chinkii.com/uploads/) guys. It's free and easy

[far]

I couldnt upload from the site u gave me...but here is what I got

hope this is better

Numbers on your picture...

1.) Enable= This is used to enable/disable your ports. Instead of deleting everything you just disable it.

2.) Discription= Used to tell you what progam is using those ports. In this case Bittorent.

3.) Ports= This is what ports you use. In my guide its shown there.

4.) TCP= Just enable to TCP

5.) IP= Your LAN IP, this is were you type your LAN IP.

all routers or the same, people are lazy and need to be spoon fed
if he would have looked at the other guide you did, everything is the same
just in a different order

[far]

This is where Im stuck now...It tells me "port numbers u enter are invalid"

muchspl2...Trust me ...I tried to follow his guide But the it seems my router is totally different.. it has whole other ports then his.

[TheFilePirater]

then try the "private ports" tab...geeze man

[far]

I think I did it ...I just entered 6681 and 6689 in every port...Hope I did it right ;)
didnt get any error messages when I clicked apply.

[TheFilePirater]

Sorry to bother u man! :)

[TheFilePirater]

even tho you didnt hot-link it right...yes it does look good

[far]

HMM...Its still on yellow...But im sure ill change in a sec

[far]

still on yellow...How do I hot-link it right?

[TheFilePirater]

get another host

[muchspl2]

you open the wrong ports
6881-6889


EDIT:n/m
you posted that you open the wrong ports, but it looks right in the pic, I couldn't see it untill I copy/pasted it into ie

[far]

ok..so it should work now right?

[TheFilePirater]

yes

[far]

I just checked in my bittorrent download window...I clicked on "prefs" and there it told me that my port range was from 6881 to 6999 so now I changed those numbers in virtual server ...was that the right thing to do??

Or should I change the numbers in bittorrent to the original ones I posted before??

[muchspl2]

your fine you don't have to change shit
6881 - 6889 is open in your router, thats enought for 9 different torrents to download, more is unnessecery

[far]

Its still on yellow...But the speed is good....80kb/s

[far]

Its just weird cause in My bittorrent window it says that my port range is 6881 to 6999 ..Should I change them??

[muchspl2]

read much?
but try to look at the faq
http://www.dessent.net/btfaq
or even better on routers and bt
http://userpages.umbc.edu/~hamilton/btclientconfig.html

if your running xp, you should turn off xp's firewall

[far]

I am running XP...and just how does my white ass turn off the firewall??...Do I need to turn off my virus pretection firewall too?

Thanx

[muchspl2]

start -> run -> type "services.msc" (WITHOUT THE "") ->return -> turn off icf internet connection firewall
leave your AV on, but if you have a software firewall like za, just allow bt to access the internet

[far]

Um U didnt tell me what to do when I get to "services.msc"...I turned off my internet connection firewall

[far]

done everything ...Im giving up on this one ....still get the yellow lamp :angry:

90% of my dl have the yellow, but they do finish and speeds are pretty nice most of the time ;) I stopped bothering about this one too. I just accepted and download happy ever after :P

[far]

Imagine what ur speed would be like if it didnt have the yellow lamp on!
200kb/s!! feels good just looking at the number

:lol: even with the yellow light i sometimes hit speeds over 200k B)
it all depends on the amount and speed of the seeders/peers B)

[muchspl2]

yea but if you ALWAYS SEE A YELLOW LIGHT YOUR NOT DOING SOMETHING RIGHT !!

true story

[far]

even with the yellow light i sometimes hit speeds over 200k
Damn boy!...we are talking over 400kb/s with the green light on!Im getting horny just thinking about that..


yea but if you ALWAYS SEE A YELLOW LIGHT YOUR NOT DOING SOMETHING RIGHT !!

Man..I have done everything..shut down my firewall (not xp one...dunno how) did that portforwarding thing...But still yellow! :angry:

[muchspl2]

I told you haw to turn off xp's firewall
disable ICF

[far]

Done...this is what I disabled Internet Connection Firewall (ICF) / Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)

wish me luck...Im going in

true story
even if i disable router & software firewall and av (just for testing) i have yellow often.
i see the other colors too on some occasions (blue-green) so tell me much how is that possible?

well all in all not complaining my max dl speed on 1 torrent was 600KB and i know i can't double that with my connection ;)

btw was already disabled on install by me... "services.msc" :P

[muchspl2]

I don't now, but if its always yellow, something not right
things ill throw out even though I know you have done most :)
xp firewall
make sure bt in your firewall complete access to the net - Internet & server
router ports, test by dmz'ing its easy to forward the wrong ip
thats all off the top of my head, mine starts out yellow, but within a few minuets it always turns green

[far]

still YELLOW!....how do I do the proxy server thing?is that important?
